[AISWorld] ICIS 2010 Junior Faculty Consortium

[Choudhury, Vivek (choudhv)]

Vivek Choudhury and Jane Webster invite untenured IS faculty to apply to participate in the ICIS 2010 Junior Faculty Consortium (MIS Camp). It will take place on Sunday, December 12th from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Conference hotel.



The Junior Faculty Consortium consists of panels, discussions, role-playing, and other interactive sessions built around issues related to becoming a successful academic. Each activity will be facilitated by a select group of highly-successful IS faculty from universities around the world (see list below). This will allow each camper to interact with a wide variety of both new and senior faculty and to share their experiences, thoughts, and concerns about developing a career in academia.



Topics that might be covered include: research strategies, publishing issues, building a network of colleagues, teaching strategies and issues, tenure pitfalls and experiences, time management, collegiality and academic norms, and work-life balance. The consortium is intended to not only provide some answers, but to provoke you to think about your own personal issues and challenges to become successful in academia.



Eligibility:

Eligible campers include all untenured AIS members in their first four years in an academic position (including post-docs). The number of participants

Is limited in order to maintain the richness and intimacy of the experience.



We have a great group of faculty counselors who have agreed to join us (David Avison will be giving the distinguished talk):

David Avison

Sue Brown

Pam Carter

Shirley Gregor

Atreyi Kankanhalli

Laurie Kirsch

Arun Rai

Dov Te'eni
